I bought a house for myself finally last month. It's pretty workable as-is, but I want to make changes to make it EPIC. Those changes will take a long time, but hopefully be worth it. I've already made a few improvements, like chopping holes in the ceiling and installing lights in it. Looks like I'll be staying in Reno for at least a while now.
We also painted one room; it's a bizarre scheme, but it actually looks pretty cool. The light switches and outlets were changed to black, and at the light switch level, there is a black band, 6 inches wide, all the way around the room. Above that band, the wall is light gray. Below, it is an intense royal blue. ACTUAL COLOR painted on the walls in a room. It's weird to me. But it's growing on me.
The house is still scattered with boxes and crap all over, but I'm slowly working through them. Right now I'm making curtains so I can actually arrange my living room the way I want without showing off my electronics to all the world. Then I can actually dig through all the boxes and put everything away.

I'm slowly setting back up a sewing space and a workspace for fursuits. I have plans to try to build another suit for myself before RF. We'll see how that comes along.

My back is doing a little better. The injections helped, and the place I moved into is a short walk to work (only like 2 minutes longer than driving), so I am now getting consistent daily exercise, even if it's just a little bit. It's also close enough I can stroll back home for lunch, so I'll stop eating out and eating such a crappy diet.

All in all, things are actually pretty good. My health is slowly improving, my bank account is slowly growing, and I can't really complain about anything.
